\mathbf f(x,y)=(2x-4y)\,\mathbf i+(-4x+10y-9)\,\mathbf j

is conservative if

\dfrac{\partial(2x-4y)}{\partial y}=\dfrac{\partial(-4x+10y-9)}{\partial x}

It's clear that this is true, since both partial derivatives reduce to -4, so \mathbf f is indeed a conservative vector field.

Since \mathbf f(x,y) is conservative, there must be some scalar function f(x,y) such that

\nabla f(x,y)=\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}\,\mathbf i+\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}\,\mathbf j=\mathbf f(x,y)
\implies\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=2x-4y

Integrating with respect to x yields

\displaystyle\int\frac{\partial f}{\partial x}\,\mathrm dx=f(x,y)=x^2-4xy+g(y)

and differentiating with respect to y yields

\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=-4x+g'(y)=-4x+10y-9
\implies g'(y)=10y-9
\implies g(y)=\displaystyle\int g'(y)\,\mathrm dy=5y^2-9y+C

Thus the scalar potential of \mathbf f(x,y) is

f(x,y)=x^2-4xy+5y^2-9y+C

where C is an arbitrary constant.

I think it would be A, because if she jogged the same amount each day she jogged then all you need to do is multiply how much she jogged by how many days she jogged.

Answer:

Mean = 30516.67

Standard deviation, s = 3996.55

P(x < 27000) = 0.0011518

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

28500 35500 32600 36000 34000 25700 27500 29000 24600 31500 34500 26800

Mean, xbar = Σx / n = 366200 /12 = 30516.67

Standard deviation, s = [√Σ(x - xbar) / n-1]

Using calculator, s = 3996.55

The ZSCORE = (x - mean) / s/√n

Zscore = (27000 - 30516.67) / (3996.55/√12)

Zscore = - 3516.67 / 1153.7046

Zscore = - 3.048

P(x < 27000) = P(Z < - 3.049) = 0.0011518
